    Timeline Of Terroristic Incidents

    Since 1999 Carl Chinn has recorded more than 1,000 such attacks  on churches and other houses of worship.  Most of these attacks in the United States by crazed criminals have no known motive, angry husbands who found out their pastor texted their wives, drunk drivers, or drivers whose "brakes fail" or "confused pedals". None have been tied to politically or motivated terrorist attacks. Why and who would deliberately target a church or pastor? There is absolutely no evidence of any connection between any incidents in the west, or in Vietnam and anti-Christian attacks by other religions.

    On the other hand, attacks on churches in the Muslim world in nations like Nigeria, Pakistan, Philippines, and Syria by groups such as Boko Haram do have an obvious motive.

    Types of attacks

    ETA Some relevant stats;

    From 1/1/99 thru 7/26/13 church shootings where motive was known
    Number one motive-robbery
    number two motive-personal
    number three motive-domestic

    Most popular church for shootings?
    Number one- Baptist
    number two- Non denomination
    Number three- Catholic

    February 26, 2018 Fake Bombs and Anthrax Letter Sent to 2 Churches and High School in Rochester MN Kyle John Miller, 20 of Dodge Center was arrested after he was found by police after a call of a suspicious man at a Mayo Clinic Generose Parking Ramp at St. Mary’s Hospital with a rifle pointed to his head. He shot himself, but it turned out to be a bb gun and he admitted to placing fake bombs and anthtrax letters at Oak Hills Wesleyan Church and Calvary Evangelical Church and Century High school with threatening messages. The devices were determined to be harmless, and Miller had left an envelope at Century with $267 in cash for a scholarship, and one of the container he left at one of the churches had $100. Miller was sent for a mental evaluation which determined that at the time of the offense, Miller “was laboring under such a defect of reason that he was unable to know the nature of the acts constituting the offenses charged in the complaint and he was not able to understand that his actions were wrong,” Miller was book and charged with five terrorist counts of threats of violence. Those charges were dismissed after a hearing on October 29, even though his actions seemed to anticipate later attacks in 2018 people sending letters with white powder, castor bean ricin letters and working pipe bombs to Trump family, pentagon and democratic leaders. After considering the available evidence, Judge Joseph Chase ruled that Miller was mentally ill and could not be held responsible for his actions.

    February 23, yet another Coptic Christian man, Hani, was fatally shot in al-'Arish, Sinai, by members of the Islamic terrorist group, Ansar Bait al-Maqdis. Hani was in his shop when three terrorists drove by and opened fire on him killing him immediately. Weeks earlier, masked gunmen stormed the home of another Coptic Christian man residing in al-'Arish. After robbing him and his family at gunpoint, they shot him several times in the head, instantly killing him. According to the slain man's wife, her husband was murdered "only because he was a Copt [Christian]." She pointed out that the masked intruders stole everything in sight — the money in his pockets, whatever jewelry she was wearing, her handbag, cell phones, and even a Bible. After plundering everything, they then shot the Christian "infidel" in the head, leaving his wife widowed and his children with no breadwinner.

    On February 2, the Islamic State (IS) announced that it had executed yet another Christian priest in Mosul — Paul Jacob, who had been kidnapped eight months earlier. The Islamic State apparently also blew up his parish.

    Muslim Attacks on Christian Churches and Monasteries
    Cameroon: Islamic militants fleeing a three-nation offensive took revenge Thursday, February 5, by attacking churches, and shooting and burning to death as many as 100 people. According to Cameroon's Information Minister, Issa Tchiroma Bakari, approximately 800 militants from neighboring Nigeria's Islamic terrorist organization Boko Haram entered the Cameroon border town of Fotokol; there, they burned churches, "slaughtered youth who resisted joining them to fight Cameroonian forces" and then used the youths they took with them as human shields.
    Egypt: A project to build a road around Fayum, Egypt, crosses territory around the Coptic monastery of St. Macarius and threatens to destroy this ancient archaeological site dating to the 4th century -- some 300 years before Islam was born and invaded Coptic Egypt. As aresponse to the project, the monastery's monks objected with passive resistance — laying their bodies before the path of the bulldozers, which arrived with shouts of "Allahu Akbar" from the company workers (click here for pictures of monks lying before tanks). Previously, the monks had submitted alternative plans for a road that would also preserve Egypt's ancient Christian site, but authorities rejected them.
    Islamic State: IS militants blew up the Church of the Immaculate Virgin — one of the largest and oldest Chaldean churches in the ancient section of Mosul. "The organization," a security source said, "finished wiring the church with explosives this morning and detonated it, leaving widespread destruction in the church and neighboring buildings." The old church — which stood on the foundation of what was the most ancient Christian church in Mosul — had withstood previous militant Islamic attacks, including a 2008 car bomb attack. The Islamic State also continued to purge any sign or symbol of Christianity from one of the oldest Christian regions, the Nineveh plains of Iraq and the adjoining city of Mosul. Acts of wanton hate and destruction at the hands of IS members throughout February include the destruction of the cross of the St. John Church in the Hamdaniya district, the ransacking of the church, and the destruction of the cross of the Church of the Hour in Mosul. A large copper-encased statue of a statue of St. George was also stolen from the St. George Monastery in Mosul. Other Christian symbols and icons — including the statue of the Virgin Mary in the monastery's courtyard — were smashed to pieces.
    Islamic State/Egypt: Hussein bin Mahmoud, a jurist of Islamic law for the Islamic State, said in an article published on February 17, and that also appeared on various jihadi websites, that all Christian churches in Cairo must be demolished. The article, "Ruling on Egypt's Christians," written like a fatwa, inaccurately asserts:
    The ruling concerning the churches that are in Cairo is that they be destroyed, according to the consensus of the righteous forefathers [Salaf], because they are new under Islam, and Cairo is a new city whose original inhabitants were Muslim; there were no churches in it previously. As for churches in Upper Egypt, which may have been in existence before the Islamic conquest of Egypt, these may remain but may never be renovated or fixed.
    The Islamic state cleric cited medieval jurist Ibn Taymiyya (d. 1328), some of whose fatwas deal with Islam's views on churches, which are described as "worse than bars and brothels." Taymiyya and many other jurists (such as Ibn Qayyim), in fact, called for the destruction of all churches built after the conquests (See Crucified Again, pgs. 35-36 for a review of the relevant fatwas/teachings).
    NigerAccording to a nun who escaped the violence that erupted after the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo published cartoons of Muhammad, 40 churches were torched and 10 people slaughtered. The nun added that "the intention was to torch all the churches with us inside them on Christmas Day and burn us alive!" This never came to pass but, as with theCharlie Hebdo cartoons, an excuse was found ("collective punishment" is often an excuse to kill — in this instance, blaming Niger's Christians for the actions of Parisian atheists). "Boko Haram students," said the nun, "believe they must kill Christians in order to take their place in paradise, but we won't surrender to fear because love must prevail over hatred."
    Pakistan: On the morning of February 19, three armed men entered Our Lady Queen of Angels Catholic church in Kasur district, Punjab, which is 97% Muslim. The men took hostage the church personnel, the assistant parish priest, Father Ijaz Bashir, and the congregation. Before leaving the premises, the men stole mobile telephones, cameras and a computer. This was not the first time the church was targeted. Earlier, Father Leopold, the parish priest, was robbed by thieves who "pretended to be ordinary members of the faithful wanting to enroll some children at the parish school. Then they suddenly pulled out guns."
    Tanzania: A church in Mashewa -- in the overwhelmingly Muslim-majority area of the Muheza district of Tanga Region -- was set on fire. Before that, the pastor of the church had been repeatedly threatened.
    Muslim Attacks on Christian Freedom
    (Apostasy, Blasphemy, and Proselytization)
    Egypt: A 26-year-old Coptic Christian man and his fiancée were arrested on the accusation that they blasphemed on Facebook against the prophet of Islam, Muhammad, and his child-bride, Aisha. When the accusation was made that Michael Munir had posted something offensive concerning Muhammad, dozens of Muslims surrounded his house in the village of Dimyana in Daqhiliya governate, Egypt. The angry Muslims were reportedly about to set fire to his home when security forces arrived and arrested him. Munir was reportedly being held, pending investigation, for four days.
    Iran: As reported on February 2, Victor Bet-Tamarz, a sickly 60-year-old Assyrian Pentecostal church leader, and another unidentified Christian — both of whom were among many Christians to be arrested after Iranian security forces raided his Tehran home during a Christmas celebration — remained behind bars. According to reports based on testimony from Christians present during the anti-Christmas raid, "Police was seen filming the arrests, forcing each Christian to state their identity, explain why they were there and why they thought they were being detained. Authorities reportedly separated men from women and proceeded to search them, confiscating Bibles, mobile phones and identification papers. Police also searched Pastor Victor's home, seizing his computer, mobile phones and books."
    Pastor Saeed Abedini, who has been in imprisoned and tortured in Iran, in the brutal prisons of Evin, then Rajai Shahr, for three years in an eight-year sentence, also remains in unspeakable conditions for the "crime" of being a Christian.
    Islamic State: Ten elderly and disabled Christians (eight men, two women) who "managed to escape" from the Islamic State, after refusing to convert to Islam, shared their experiences. On Oct. 24, IS forced them out of a nursing home in Mosul and plundered their money, jewelry and IDs. The group explained how they were also pressured to say the shehada (the Islamic oath accepting Allah, and Muhammad as his prophet) and become Muslim. Rahel, one of the women from the group, said "We did not want to become Muslim; we just wanted to leave." Another elderly man said: "IS used to beat us every day with their weapons or hands. They gave us little food." Separately, Islamic State members arrested the owner of Arab Generation, one of the oldest bookstores in Mosul, for selling Christian books. Islamic law bans the "promotion" of any religion other than Islam.
    Lebanon: In early February, a number of Muslim students closed off the entrance to the College of Business Administration in Tripoli, Lebanon, calling for the immediate resignation of the newly appointed director of the school, Antoine Tanus. His crime? He is a Christian. In the words of the National News Agency, the students are protesting "over the hiring of a Christian director to manage the College of Business Administration." Students said that they would continue protesting until the Christian director was removed and replaced by a Muslim.
    Saudi Arabia: America's supposed close friend and ally reportedly decreed the death penaltyfor anyone caught trying to smuggle Bibles or any other "publications that have prejudice to any other religious belief other than Islam." According to the Christian Post:
    The Saudi Arabian government has reportedly passed a law that imposes the death penalty on people caught smuggling Bibles into the majority-Muslim country.
    According to the HeartCry Missionary Society, the Saudi government issued an official statement signifying that capital punishment may now be used on those who smuggle Bibles into the desert nation, where the royal family upholds a strict Wahhabi brand of Sunni Islam.
    The society's report added that the death penalty, which usually comes in the form of beheadings, can also be used against people who simply distribute the Bible and all other "publications that have prejudice to any other religious belief other than Islam." This means that anyone handing out any kind of religious literature that is not of Islamic faith can legally be executed. [For an idea of Saudi-style execution by beheading, the video of a recent one can be viewed here.]
    Tanzania: A February report told of how "a young woman from a Muslim background who had become a Christian, was beaten and badly burned by her parents after choosing to marry a Christian man. The attack came immediately after her baptism on Sunday 2 November in Zirai, Muheza district. Last year, Imamu Sudi Bin Umar of the Ansar Suna mosque in Al Masijid Tawaqal had urged all Muslim parents to punish children who chose to marry Christians."
    Uganda: The Muslim uncle of two sisters in eastern Uganda physically beat and starved themfor converting to Christianity. On Sunday, February 1, the sisters (aged 14 and 16) converted to Christianity. In the words of one of the girls: "My uncle became so furious because we had embraced Jesus. He locked us inside the house and began beating us with a wooden stick, and then we were left for three days without food. At the third day, we felt as if we were going to die, and we began crying for help." A neighbor eventually heard the two girls while their uncle was away and let them out. They fled to the church for sanctuary and treatment. Beating and trapping the girls without food is the exact recommendation Islamic law offers for females who try to leave Islam, especially in the Hanafi version of Islamic of law. Weeks earlier in Uganda, a Muslim father killed his young daughter for converting to Christianity.

      • 9 September 1990 Alexander Men Murdered Russian Priest Russian dissident who had been targeted by the KGB was mysteriously brutally murdered by a man with an ax with no apparent motive. Fr. Men's ministry, which lasted for more than thirty years, coincided with the very difficult times for the Russian believers, and he personally became a target as had kept his independence through the Brezhnev years, refusing to cooperate with the KGB. He taught underground Bible classes. His theological works were published abroad under a pseudonym and in the Soviet Union in underground editions. (Was he assasinated by Russian government?)

      • October 19, 1984 1 priest killed by communist agents When Communists Murdered a Priest October 21, 2014, Paul Kengor The original piece was published at The American Spectator. It was October 19, 1984—30 years ago this week. A gentle, courageous, and genuinely holy priest, Jerzy Popieluszko, age 37, found himself in a ghastly spot that, though it must have horrified him, surely did not surprise him. An unholy trinity of thugs from communist Poland’s secret police had seized and pummeled him. He was bound and gagged and stuffed into the trunk of their cream-colored Fiat 125 automobile as they roamed the countryside trying to decide where to dispatch him. This kindly priest was no less than the chaplain to the Solidarity movement, the freedom fighters who would ultimately prove fatal to Soviet communism—and not without Popieluszko’s stoic inspiration. . Alexander Minkin, compared Men's death with the Polish secret police's assassination of pro-Solidarity priest Jerzy Popieluszko in 1984 -- "an event that once and for all set the people against the forces of power in Poland.
      • May 13, 1981 CIA Confirmed Russians’ Role in Shooting of Pope John Paul II, Reagan Biographer Writes Kevin Mooney  May 1, 2017 - Pope John Paul II meets with and forgives Mehmet Ali Agca, role of the Soviet GRU, the Russians’ brutal foreign military intelligence unit, and KGB spy agency head Yuri Andropov in the attempt on John Paul II’s life, Kengor said.  President Reagan and his CIA chief, William Casey, had suspected from the outset that the Soviets had a hand in the shooting of John Paul II on May 13, 1981, in St. Peter’s Square in Rome. Turk named Mehmet Ali Agca, 23, fired four bullets from a handgun at John Paul II, two of which struck him, as the pontiff entered the square. An Italian court eventually sentenced Agca, an escaped murderer, to life in prison. John Paul later forgave Agca, and Prime Minister Carlo Ciampi pardoned him at the pope’s request, deporting him to Turkey in 2000. Both Reagan, who died in 2004, and John Paul II, who died in 2005, decided it would be best not to disclose the findings at the time, Kengor said. The pope was concerned about starting World War III and “shrewdly figured that people would rightly blame Moscow anyway,” he said. Reagan was asked several times about a possible Soviet role in the shooting, but was “very careful not to say what was truly on his mind,” Maybe Washington has heretofore feared offending Putin (who was in KGB at the time) and hurting U.S.-Russian relations.”  a Turkish[1][2] assassin and ultranationalist and/or neo-fascistGrey Wolves member[3] who murdered left-wing journalist Abdi Ä°pekçi on 1 February 1979, and later shot and wounded Pope John Paul II on 13 May 1981, after escaping from a Turkish prison.
